His two decades’ worth of experience in traditional and digital media, as well as his work with global events such as the Olympic Games, will help guide StubHub’s strategies across mobile, social and other innovative technology platforms like virtual reality, and his background in sports and entertainment will complement StubHub’s efforts in the industry.

“At StubHub, we’re focused on connecting consumers with inspiring event experiences, and Perkins’ omnichannel and industry expertise will help us expand how we build memorable experiences for our customers,” said StubHub President Scott Cutler. “As the world of events becomes more mobile, social and global, Perkins’ extensive experience in cross-platform will help lead StubHub into new areas and benefit our buyers and sellers alike.”

Before the NFL, Miller was executive vice president of digital media at WWE, where he was responsible for strategy, planning and operations of WWE’s global digital and social businesses. Prior positions include chief operating officer at Vocativ and COO at Universal Sports, among others.

“StubHub creates connections in the world of live events, and I look forward to applying my passion for sports and entertainment, and experience in creating engaging and fan-centric ventures in this industry to the organization and to customers,” said Miller.

Miller holds a Bachelor of Arts from Middlebury College. He will be based in San Francisco.
